Great Ocean Road

Australia

If sea level is more your style, cruise down under to Australia and drive the Great Ocean Road. Southwest Victoria plays host to this great run, with sights along the way ranging from resort towns and lighthouses to the Otways rain forest. You’ll wind along the Southern Ocean beachfront between Lorne and Apollo Bay, and the huge waves around Bells Beach are a surfer’s dream. And then there are the Twelve Apostles, which are awesome limestone rock stacks jutting up from the water in Port Campbell National Park between Princetown and Peterborough. Completed in 1932, the Great Ocean Road is a source of pride for Australians and an entertaining drive for travelers from all over the world. Tour highlight: Refueling with fresh seafood and local wine.
